Boxing Top Tip 4
Fast 1-2, BIG Left Hook

An awesome combination commonly used by the more experienced boxers in the game. Throw a really fast 1-2 to keep the guy on the defensive and then a big left hook. (REMEMBER: You have to throw a really fast 1-2 with no emphasis on power - pure focus on speed. The cross is thrown slightly after the jab so that the 1-2 lands right after one another which is then followed by a big left hook that is thrown with all your power.
